Claire McCaskill Begins New Job

Former U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill has a new career.  She’s joined NBC News and MSNBC as a political analyst.

Morning Joe hosts, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, made the announcement this morning during a one-on-one interview with McCaskill who said they’re excited to have her as part of their team.

According to McCaskill’s press team, the former senator will offer insight and political analysis on breaking news stories across both networks starting today.  She’ll join MSNBC for its coverage of President Trump’s State of the Union Address on January 29.

Michele Skalicky has worked at KSMU since the station occupied the old white house at National and Grand. She enjoys working on both the announcing side and in news and has been the recipient of statewide and national awards for news reporting. She likes to tell stories that make a difference. Michele enjoys outdoor activities, including hiking, camping and leisurely kayaking.
